Best handgun I've used to date

As the title reads, you should own this handgun.

Also I hear they are trying to ban this particular pistol so get it! Virtually no recoil! Sweet

 

Shoot a glock and you will change your mind

 

Low recoil, flat ballistic curve at long range, high ammo capacity... However, the civilian-legal 5.7 mm ammo is unproven. The tumbling properties of the 5.56x45mm rifle cartridge are not necessarily retained at the much slower pistol velocities.

 

not me...not for $1k!

 

This was kinda what I was thinking- Except mine was more along the lines of "WTF-They make 5.7 for handguns??"

The manual safety is a turn off for me as well. And the price.

 

I'm a huge glock fan. I have a few. Glock is the best value available for under $550 hands down.

 

If you feel you need a handgun like that why not just solve the issue and buy a Smith .500?? At least you know it will massacre whatever you shoot.

 

Not very cost efficient would be my guess lol i like the five sever but its way out of my price range haha

 

The Five-seveN is single-action-only, so it needs to be carried cocked-and-locked like a 1911 to get any kind of "readiness". Therefore the external safety is necessary. Glock is the way to go. For the price of a Five-seveN you can get a Trijicon RMR mounted on your Glock...

 

I have to agree, for the price you can't bet a Glock. I have a 17 that I have had for years. I have thought about selling it a couple of times but I just can't. I have shot and currently own better shooting guns but for the price and durability you won't beat a Glock.

 

Yeah...I get that it needs to be carried "at the ready." I'll take my DAO SiG P250-One less step to worry about when it matters.

 

I have owned and used virtually every handgun configuration imaginable. I love guns. However,I do not like any polymer gun (personal preference). I went through a huge 1911 phase for a while (still love them) but am a die hard wheel gun guy now. My fav is my 627-5 (8 shot 357). It shoots better than any handgun I have ever owned. I also have the same gun in a 2" barrel that is superb for carry and it shoots .75" at 15 yards if I do my part. Find what you like and stick with it.

 

H&K USP, if it's good enough for the US Navy Seals, it's good enough for me...

 

yeah so are Sig's, but they cost more ...and they aren't any better than Glock

 

Don't sell it dog...unless it's to me.

 

I've seen a glock handle blow up in a guys hand. I'll pass on the glock and stick to my sig's

 

My next addtion to my humble collection when released-

New Sig P290 Sub-Compact 9mm

Sig Sauer has unveiled their newest pistol: the Sig P290. It is significant (excuse the pun) because it is a whole new platform. The first P290 that will be available is chambered in 9mm Luger/Parabellum but I fully expect to see it chambered in other cartridges late next year.

​

One notable feature is that the side grip panels are removable. Sig plan on offering a range of aluminum, wood, and polymer grips that they will engrave with your initials, if you so wish.

​

​

A laser sight that fits in front of the trigger guard will also be offered (see below photo).
